Thanks for the encouragement, Michelle. I know I did the right thing by leaving my job but it is still depressing to be out of work. I live in a very small town and jobs are few and far between. I know the right job will come along.

Sounds like you've had a housefull with six boys there! Been there, done that! My kids are 19, 15, 8, 5, and 2! The oldest and youngest are girls, three middle ones, boys. My house is always a zoo!

Debbie, as far as foods I've had problems with, I can't really answer. I try and stay away from most LC processed food. I've had a little here and there and find my weight loss usually slows or stops. I try and stay with whole foods. I've never really been an ice cream eater so that's easy for me to avoid. I do use an occasional slice of LC bread with no problems. I do keep a bag of Sugar Free Reeces Peanut Butter Cups on hand in case I really get a sweet tooth. I've had my current bag for almost two months already and have only had two out of it.

Off to enjoy my sunny MN weather! Have a great weekend all!
